Welcome to the Forum matey. Don't suppose that your custom Sanhui has pointy ears by any chance? Have to ask as there are a bunch of Elves here always eager to find out whether any more of their kin have trained their humans in use of the portal of chatting.... You know you could just call it the forum don't you... well its less syllables for starters... No I'm not trying to get you to talk less... I am not repressing Elves and WTF is the patriarchy anyway... I despair.. Sorry, momentarily distracted. Looking forwards to seeing pics of your new lass and welcome on board.

To be fair, it was a mistake to assume that everyone would get that abbreviation! Yes, RP is Role Play! :24

...She may have pointy ears. She may also have a dark skin tone...

This is an introductory thread. Why not share a fun story of how I came to own a doll?

So, Arachne Baenre is the name of a drow character I am currently playing in a Pathfinder game. I've always loved the drow race since I got into DnD as a teenager and my current DM is really letting me have fun with this character, so I've really been enjoying playing her. I also do a lot of roleplaying online, including a character that I've been playing continually in the same game for over 14 years now. The idea of get commissioned art of some of my characters had been bouncing around my head for some time.

In Arachne's game she got herself some new gear and since this gear was sounding amazing in written description I decided to pull the trigger and get commissioned art of her. I got lucky and found an amazing artist who had no one in their commission queue at the time and was able to finish the art before the next session happened. After this, I decided to get the art as a large canvas print, because hey, I just paid good money for some art, why not show it off in my house and be able to enjoy it every day? When that came in I showed it off to my gaming group and one of them made a comment along the lines of asking when I was going to order the body pillow next?

It got a good laugh from everyone including myself. After session, being one to take a joke too far, decided to google 'Drow realdoll' because that was the only name I knew for a full sized sex doll. First result? Willendorph's Nymeria thread on TDF. I clicked that link and was immediately entranced. She looked so good that I wasn't even looking at what site I was on. I honestly thought at first I was looking at a really good cosplay, photoshop, or digital art. Pretty sure I read that thread from start to finish that night, enjoying every photo.

A doll is something that I'd thought about for years, but never in a serious way. I'd heard that they were very, very expensive (not to say that they're cheap now, but I paid far less than the number in my head) and never really looked into it. Now I had a perfect example of what was possible in front of me. Luckily after making an account there Willendorph was incredibly willing to answer all of my questions about both dolls in general and specifically Nymeria.

That was in January. I also reached out to Mike at Sanhui to talk about getting a custom doll that month. I placed my order at the beginning of February, and she finally arrived on Friday, March 17th. :D

Oh, and I never followed up on the joke with that guy... Here's hoping that no one in that group ever decides to search Arachne's name! :whistle:

TL;DR: Thanks to a friend's joke about a custom body pillow, I now am the proud owner of a lovely drow doll.
